SSA Avoids Key Issues in Response to Nomination Dispute

See previous entry with the reply from S.L. ADRIAANSE Chief Executive SWIMMING SOUTH AFRICA for context on the below

On 23 August 2024, Swimming South Africa (SSA) responded to concerns raised by Mr. Kemp regarding the eligibility of certain nominees for the SSA Executive Committee. In their response, SSA Chief Executive S.L. Adriaanse stated that Becker Kemp Solicitors & Attorneys are not recognized as a capitated member of SSA. This response was seen as an attempt to question Mr. Kemp’s standing in raising these concerns, focusing on procedural aspects rather than addressing the substantive issue of ineligible nominations for the upcoming elections.

This reply did not engage with the primary concerns about the legitimacy of the nominations, suggesting a reluctance to tackle the issues directly. As a result, Mr. Kemp has appealed directly to the Affiliate Presidents to ensure that these critical concerns are addressed at the Quadrennial Annual General Meeting on 25 August 2024.
